Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Walk the streets for money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's rightRoxanne
You don't have to wear that dress tonight
Those days are over
You don't have to sell your body to the nightRoxanne, Roxanne, Roxanne
Oh no!Don't you put on the red light
You don't have to put on the red light
You don't have to put on the red light
RoxanneDon't you put on the red light
You don't have to put on the red light
You don't have to put on the red light
RoxanneI loved you since I knew ya
I wouldn't talk down to you
I have to tell you just how I feel
I won't share you with another boyI know my mind is made up
So put away your make up
I told you once, I won't tell you again
It's a bad wayRoxanne, Roxanne, Roxanne
Oh, not again!Don't you put on the red light
You don't have to put on the red light
You don't have to put on the red light
RoxanneDon't you put on the red light
You don't have to put on the red light
You don't have to put on the red light
RoxanneI know your heart is broken
And it's left you so wide open
I know your heart is broken
RoxanneDon't try to pick up the pieces
Just leave them where they lie
I'm gonna give you a new heart
TonightDon't try to pick up the pieces
Just leave them where they lie
I'm gonna give you a new heart
TonightDon't you put on the red light
You don't have to put on the red light
You don't have to put on the red light
RoxanneDon't you put on the red light
Don't have to put on the red light
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
